Paul
Sciortino '90 has set up a message
board for Oberlin students and alums who are trying to contact each
other in the aftermath of Tuesday's events.
Oberlin College's
librarians have put together a guide for individuals seeking information
about the events that occurred on September 11. The list,
intended to assist the Oberlin College community in seeking information
to understand the political, religious, economic, and cultural contexts
relating to the events of September 11, is available online
and in print form at the main library.
Other resources
available on campus:
- Many
students, faculty and staff members are experiencing difficult and complex
feelings regarding the tragic events of September 11. Our equilibrium
and typical coping styles may seem inadequate or inappropriate, in our
attempts to regain our composure or a state of normalcy. For a description
of reactions to crises and suggestions for self-care and coping see
the counseling center's web
site.
- Students
who wish to call family members may use phones in the Student Life offices
in Wilder 105.
- Television
monitors have been set up in Wilder Lounge.
- Incoming
telephone calls to the College operator from parents and family members
will be routed to the office of Residential Life and Services (x8472)
where staff will be available to relay messages and contact information.
- Fairchild
chapel in Bosworth is open and accessible to all.
- Faculty
members have been asked to continue to meet with their classes and to
offer support to students and others in classes and outside of class.
- Oberlin
Online will be the main source of updated campus information.
